Ottawa Senators at Toronto Maple Leafs
Ottawa Senators visit the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday at 7:00 PM ET. Game-specific starting-goalie confirmation is not available in this preview, so there is no goalie comparison to offer here; that is a limitation of this preview and not a statement about whether either team has announced a starter.
On the team figures, the two samples are not drawn from the same stretch, so they should be read with care.
On the injury front, Rotowire lists Ottawa's Jake Sanderson and Jorian Donovan as day-to-day and Andre Burakovsky as Out. For Toronto, Rotowire lists Dakota Joshua, Max Domi and Elvis Merzlikins with the status IR-LT. These are source-reported statuses only and say nothing definitive about availability or impact in this game.
